Chapter 1978 Who could they be? (2)

Rose could see the fluctuating emotions in Jade's eyes. For a moment, she even caught a faint glance of a decisive glint that faded away as soon as it appeared. For that split second… It was almost as though her master had come back…

"I said let's go!" Rose repeated sharply after steadying her emotions.

"Don't you think you should be a little more understanding toward the emotions of your own disciple?"

Hearing these words, Rose's brow furrowed immediately, her head snapping toward the direction of the voice to find two women standing before her side by side.

Who else could they be if not Saru and Lilith?

"You…" Rose's temper flared. She was already in a bad mood to begin with. Who were these strangers to question to dare to question her?

'Wait.' Rose suddenly paused. 'Isn't this Lilith? The devil quadrant girl? How could she dare to appear here?'

Obviously, Rose had been present during the Soul Rending Peak and The Cathedral fiasco. And, even more obviously, though Dyon sealed everyone to not speak of matters that day, Rose hadn't been one of them. Only she and the now dead Jade hadn't been touched.

The Nephilim Alliance didn't discriminate against the devil quadrants. However, that wasn't the same for everyone else.

Since the Nephilim Alliance allowed strength to rule supreme, if a devil path cultivator showed themselves here, no one would protect them should someone more powerful kill them. There were no such rules of deterrence here.

Of those of the devil quadrant, only Palace Lord Ravana dared to come here. And even then, he would be cautious so as not to get caught in a trap.

"Saru?"

Before Rose could make a decision on how to respond, Jade suddenly spoke.

While Rose only recognized Lilith, Jade recognized Saru. After all, back in Dyon's home universe, she was ranked among the top 10 geniuses, everyone knew her. Her fame only became more potent during the World Tournament. Though, her sudden disappearance was never explained to many.

Of course, back then, Saru had not even been ten years old even though she disguised herself as a sixteen-year-old. So, one couldn't take her placement back then too seriously.

Rose became conflicted once more. She knew of Lilith, and now her disciple knew of this Saru… Plus, this Saru name… She was sure that her master listed her among those she should try her best to protect. If she exposed Saru now, she might be implicated with Lilith since they travelled together.

Like this, the instigator giant became a side character as four women faced each other.

Seeing that they had become the center of attention, Rose frowned. With a wave of her hand, the four of them vanished.

The instigator giant's pupils constricted. 'Higher Existence!'

He suddenly felt a cold sweat mat his back. He had been quite dissatisfied with how that young lady was treating her disciple as well. What would have happened if he said his thoughts out first before that white haired girl had? He didn't dare to think of the consequences…

"You two. Who are you?" Rose said with an antagonistic frown.

"We are your allies." Saru said lightly.

"I don't remember becoming allies with a devil path cultivator." Rose responded with a sneer.

"I'm sure your master taught you better than to look down on people for such inconsequential things."

"You dare bring up my master's name?!" Rose's temper flared once more.

She really wasn't this kind of person. She thought herself to be calm and thoughtful, but when it came to matters of her pa.s.sed master, she was simply too sensitive.

"I am only reminding you of something you already know." Saru said calmly.

"What do you know? This Lilith was responsible for heading a soul slave market, she was completely complicit in the deaths of millions of youths. This was what her devil path people did!"

"You know that story better than I do." Saru continued with the same even tone. "So you know well that it was actually normal humans of the conventional path that committed much of the horrors. The devil path cultivators were involved, yes. But why is it that you choose to use this to label them and not all conventional path cultivators as well?"

Rose felt as though she had choked on her own words. It was true that the devil cultivators were part of that scheme, but it was also true that most of the atrocities were committed by conventional cultivators. In addition, she well knew that the Soul Market was established even before Lilith was born.

There were also many things she didn't know as well. For example, after Dyon injured Lilith's soul, she could have chosen to use the soul of one of the soul slaves to heal herself. However, she chose not to, even enduring the humiliation of appearing naked before Dyon for the sake of treatment instead.

Of course, considering Rose's state of mind, maybe even knowing this wouldn't have been enough.

Jade watched nervously to the side, not knowing how to approach this situation. Though she knew who Saru was, she had never interacted with her. She didn't know what the purpose of this visit was for.

"Let's forget these matters, we've gotten off on the wrong foot. We actually came here to bring you two back to the Sacharro Clan. Don't you think it's time for you to return?"

Rose's brow twitched. "You were sent by that pig Dyon?"

"What did you call him?!" Lilith's sword flew from its sheath. The song of sword qi filled the air as she pointed her blade toward Rose. "Say that again and see if I don't cut your tongue off!"

Rose's eyes widened. 'Seventh Stage Dao? As a Lower Dao Expert? How is that even possible?!"

Saru sighed, pulling Lilith's extended wrist down lightly.

"Dyon will be coming himself personally soon, but you two have probably already heard about what happened with the Sprite Alliance. It wasn't appropriate for him to leave too soon."

"We aren't going back."

Hearing these words, Jade's expression flickered. In the end, she grit her teeth.

"Even if you aren't, Master… I am!"
